I'm going to go out on a limb and guess you don't manually check the headers for every single email, or even only every one from Google and co, so are you doing something to flag or visualise this in some way?

Ah right, that's odd, wasn't aware I lived in a totalitarian society here in the Nordics. We literally just get a notification to check it, and because the state is neither trying to gotcha us or baby us, that's just the norm. The part that takes longest for me in the whole process is usually the 2FA.

Forgive my ignorance, feel like it's embarrassing to ask here to be honest, but can someone explain how this helps/works? I've never actually used these placeholders, but I always imagined that they work by processing the image beforehand on the server and using something like a super low quality image or gradient or such as the placeholder. If this is done in pure CSS, does the browser not need to download the image first to figure out what's in it, before then doing the placeholder effect? Perhaps it doesn't help that I've not had my morning coffee yet, but I don't understand.

This same thing happening on the 40 series cards was good enough vindication for me not 'upgrading' to that at the time. I'd rather not burn my house down with my beloved inside.

Can't believe the same is happening again.

If you're using iOS you can set certain contacts to bypass silent mode so that you still hear their notifications/calls. I know it doesn't help with unknown numbers, but just saying in case you're not aware. I'd be surprised if you can't do the same on Android.

The clones are limited though, are they not? Like, they don't have the directional stuff and all that do they? I may be misremembering what I've read elsewhere.

I feel genuinely stupid trying to use a website like this.

I think this is beyond being nitpicky.

More than a million? It says on the page: "424,548 Active Home Assistant Installations"

Am I missing something? Is it that these are just those you know are sharing details, and you can scale that up by a known percentage? :)

This seems to be very obvious to me when I see the recommended playlists I get handed. Some good bait, but lots of filler tripe.

Honestly doesn't sum it up very well, given that it doesn't even mention that it's an extension.

Love it! A piece of the sort of Internet that's largely gone missing. If anything I wish it could automatically add to <insert platform> playlists.

> As a podcast listener, I lose interest if I can tell the audio is AI-generated...

I've never naturally come across a podcast that's AI generated to have this reaction.

Don't worry, you're not alone. I can't remember what I didn't like about it, but I really wasn't a fan.

Thankfully there's plenty out there I am a fan of!

I am unbelievably skeptical to this and am having trouble believing this is anything other than quack stuff, but I don't have the personal skill or knowledge to make real sense of this – I'd need some real research presented rather than a marketing video. Anyone here able to help explain the head-zap-o-tron and how viable it is to a pleb like myself?

Absolutely fascinating if it works, though.

> I can't even imagine having a conversation with a friend anymore the way I used to in the 1990s and early 2000s.

I do wonder what you actually mean by this.

> Those who think social media has "corrupted" society are barking up the wrong tree.

There is clear, evidenced research around social media's negative effect on society.

etc.

I'm pretty sure that's the point they're getting at - that the original person commenting was talking about this stuff like it's just memes, in bad faith.

It was popular because it was fun.

I use Hidden Bar too, it's done the job for me, but if there's a reason to hop to another I'm all ears.

This comment is the first indication to me that they're actually separate products.

I advocate for accessibility and inclusivity constantly, but not implementing additional measures which are helpful to most due to some not being able to make use of that one aid is not the way to go. Direct your hate elsewhere.

It's a valid comment, you don't need to be offended.

Googled that head and I really don't get the point. Just get an L bracket and be done with it, surely.

This is ironic in the same way that Alanis Morissette's song is.

Beautiful space. I'm sure it's a great place to spend some time.

I'm entirely on board with this rant. That the XL means anything other than "extra large" is news to me.

> That, plus having a couple of templates handy to copy/paste when you get individualized outreach from sales teams

Do you mind elaborating/sharing?

This comment made me twitch involuntarily.

I'm glad for this article and these comments. How I've never heard of Satellaview or Sega Channel before now I'll never know, but fascinating to find out about!

Thumbnail for that video is literally "Eliminate stress in seconds", but is an 11 minute video.

I live in Norway and have never seen a .nu domain.
